The Best (or Worst) Typo Ever

So I'm crazy busy with writing grants. Today, rapid typing produced what is, I think, my first true gem, an entry suitable for those lists of terrible typos that occasionally make the rounds. I wrote:

"These observations will be guided by a protocol based on the Program Quality Self Assessment Tool and will assess the extent to which the implementation of the pogrom aligns with known best practices in after school education."

I really needed the laugh, and couldn't resist sharing.

Rough Days

Well, I usually try not to bitch too much on here, but the simple fact is I'm having a really shitty week. I expressed the expectation some weeks ago that a certain period in February was likely to be one the worst of my life, but as it's turning out, that honor is actually going to this week, despite it's having a single very positive event that's probably all that's kept me sane.

By the by, below has ended up taking the form of a rant, but I really needed to vent and whine a bit. I usually try not to put up posts like this (and I usually make them private when I do) but I've decided to go ahead and leave it - but don't bother reading if you're going to be irritated by reading other people bitch. ;)

( So...Then What? )

So in short, life really sucks right now. I can't believe I wrote so much about this. But it's had the admirable effect of delaying my dog, who has been trying to convince me to take her out early for more than an hour...
